​
2.7 Participation conditions for the training. Upon registration and/or payment, the participant has the responsibility to inform Tessa van Nes of any physical and mental discomfort or medical diagnoses that may be triggered by mental training prior to participation in the training courses.
Meditation is successfully used as a therapy for people with mental illnesses such as depression and psychoses. However, this falls under specialist care from experts such as psychologists or specially trained or trained professionals. Tessa van Nes products are not intended for curative processes. People with mental illnesses such as depression, psychoses, bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorders, epilepsy or personality disorders must inform the trainer/coach in advance so that this can be taken into account. It may be advisable to follow more specialized programs by third parties. People with psychological illnesses who have not made this known to the coach/trainer in advance, always take part in the sessions/trainings on their own responsibility. Organizations that hire Tessa van Nes for meditation/stress training must ensure that the trainer/coach is informed in advance if one of the participants in the training has a psychological condition.
2.8 Liability. Tessa van Nes is not liable for any form of physical or mental problems that arise during or as a result of the training or other products and exercises performed, such as meditation and breathing or other exercises.
By registering and participating in the coaching/training programs, the participant declares to be aware that emotions, mental and physical intensity may arise and voluntarily participates in the training and to bear responsibility for any undesirable changes in the mental, emotional and physical condition and stability. Where Tessa van Nes of course declares that it will make every effort to support the participant with these possible inconveniences insofar as this is within the possibilities, the participant accepts that he bears the responsibility for all training effects that have occurred at all times.
Tessa van Nes strives for as much personal guidance and support as possible. However, in group training it is not always possible to monitor each participant individually. Everyone is responsible for guarding their own boundaries during Tessa van Nes' training sessions. If physical and/or mental discomfort arises during the training sessions and the trainer/coach is not informed of this, it cannot prevent further consequences.
